Just to clarify things further. I am a Samsung Q1 ultra user and I have been 
using Ubuntu-Mobile since the initial release with reasonable success and a 
whole lot of complaints -- worst being the inability to "suspend" and 
"hibernate". I am not really a developer, although, I hope to be useful as a 
tester and provide bug-reports and feedback.

I guess it is time to try one of the new images.
So, now there are two editions out there:
ubuntu-MID 
ubuntu-mobile 

Both appear suitable for Samsung Q1. One is GNOME based which I kind of like 
because of familiarity but I was getting used to Hildon too.

My questions are then:
1 - Can I upgrade from existing installation? If so, is it a "dist-upgrade" 
like regular ubuntu? Is it going to create troubles? (I have some amount of 
customization but not too much).

2 - Which of the two would work "better" on Samsung Q1? I donot care too much 
about video, webcam etc. I mostly want to use this as a note-taking (both via 
an external keyboard and via the touch screen -- using xournal), internet 
(mainly to check e-mail on the go and some web-sites), storage, pdf-viewer, 
projection/presentation.

Also, are there people here interested in customizing this for "scientific" 
use? (include some touchscreen calculators, plotting utilities, xournal, 
perhaps some voice recording, presentation software etc)

Thanks,

Turgut
